Summary
In a car accident were father, mother and son Trinavant killed and a fourth passenger 'Robert Grant' was badly hurt but he survived. He lost his memory and his face was damaged. He got a new face and a new name: Bob Boyd. He went on working for Matterson as a geologic to look for oil or gas in the ground. He found nothing but there was something weird with the ground by the lake. And he found also a leak between Matterson and Trinavant. Frank Trinavant would lead the business but the children of Matterson didn't agree and took care of a car accident. Everything came true and the ground by the lake was quick clay. There came water in the quick clay and the dam broke.
My opinion
I did not read this book for pleasure reading because I think it is a little bit boring. I am glad that this book is briefer than our Dutch version in the bookcase. I shall not read this book again.
